 <%           set fso=CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")       	   set oXml = server.CreateObject ("Microsoft.XMLDOM")	   oXml.async = false	   oXml.load (server.mappath(".") + ".\control\ppdsl.xml")           set listaIdioma = oXml.getElementsByTagName(lengua)      	   set listaTipo = listaIdioma.item(0).getElementsByTagName("NEW")   [color="#FF0000"]<<-- line 72[/color]	   if listaTipo.length > 0 then		if listaTipo.item(0).hasChildNodes then			set listaRefs = listaTipo.item(0).childNodes                              ref = listaRefs.Item(i).nodename           %>

<% option explicit	dim oXml	dim i	dim nodo	dim listaIdioma	dim listaTipo	dim listaRefs        dim ref        dim price        dim description        dim moredetail        dim fso	dim lengua		lengua = session("ppdslIdioma")	if lengua="" then 		lengua ="ing"		session("ppdslIdioma") = lengua	end if%>
